Psalms 115

¹Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake. ²Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?” ³But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases. ⁴Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. ⁵They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see. ⁶They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell. ⁷They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat. ⁸Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them. ⁹Israel, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield. ¹⁰House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield. ¹¹You who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield. ¹²Yahweh remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron. ¹³He will bless those who fear Yahweh, both small and great. ¹⁴May Yahweh increase you more and more, you and your children. ¹⁵Blessed are you by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth. ¹⁶The heavens are the heavens of Yahweh; but the earth has he given to the children of men. ¹⁷The dead don’t praise Yah, neither any who go down into silence; ¹⁸But we will bless Yah, from this time forward and forever more. Praise Yah!
